The '''Gluon Drive''' is one of the ship parts in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', and it is the heaviest ship part in the game. The Gluon Drive uses quark-binding metaphysical gluons and is very scientific but makes the [[S.S. Dolphin]] lift off with a roar. | |||

It is found near two [[bridge]]s, one near the part and the other one on the opposite side. Build both and defeat the [[Shearwig]]s found near the part. As this is the heaviest part in the game, make sure all the Bulbears and the [[Puffy Blowhog]] have been defeated to ensure the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin's]] safety. | |||

*In real life, [[Wikipedia:Gluon|gluons]] are the theoretical particles responsible for the strong nuclear force. They hold quarks, elementary particles, together like glue, hence the name. | *In real life, [[Wikipedia:Gluon|gluons]] are the theoretical particles responsible for the strong nuclear force.
